When I lived in Old Manila, close to Tondo, I used to frequent Quezon City, from university all the way to my first job and even after. One of my favorite places there is Eastwood City, which has long been a hip and happening place, long before Bonifacio Global City even became more than a grassland. And it still is.

I must admit that lately, since moving to San Juan, which is even closer to QC, I haven’t been able to frequent Eastwood as much as I used to. But this holiday season and thereafter, I have a reason to return because of all the exciting treats offered by the best hotel in the area, Eastwood Richmonde Hotel.

Eastwood Richmonde Hotel’s Deluxe Room

I really enjoyed my stay at Richmonde Hotel Ortigas (click here to read my review), so I’m looking forward to my staycation at Eastwood Richmonde Hotel after Christmas and right before New Year’s Day. My incentive for doing so are all their irresistible offers for the holiday season—from fabulous and enjoyable staycations, to lavish mouthwatering feasts and a fun-filled welcome party for 2017. Plus. it’s connected to Eastwood Mall, which offers so many options for dining, shopping, and entertainment, so there’s just so much to do there!
